Craig's Musings

About two weeks ago, something magical happened. The spamtards figured out how to slip by the Movable Type 3.3 and 3.2 spam filters, and suddenly my blog and KT's blog have been getting hit with about 80-90 "not-spam" spam comments every 24 hours. Sometimes there's a break, and then the fricktarded spamtards shovel a whole bunch more in.

I have tried to find the gold in the pig dung, but I apologize if I deleted a comment that came from a human instead of a fricktarded spamtard.

I did love vmark's theater comment once again - you crack me up, dude! And yeah, you can get at Exchange via imap, but imap doesn't pass the security requirements of our and no doubt other IT departments - we require that the device be able time out to a password after a certain amount of time (and that policy needs to be a requirement that IT can enforce, not a voluntary thing), and that you are able to remote wipe your data from the device if you lose it. Given the confidential nature of the mail I get, I fully embrace and support this kind of requirement - it would be a pretty big disaster if I lost my phone and someone could get into my email. That's what makes Windows Mobile + Exchange so cool, really - you get secure real time access to your corporate directory, email, calendar. I dig it. I hope to see those features on the iPhone someday, so I can dig it there, too.
